Join a rocket ship in need for an operational beast to help our execution reach our wild growth.
Read below to see if you fit the mold to join our rapidly growing company! We’re hyper focus on building the right culture, first principled thinking, taking aggressive bets, and delivering years of individual growth within quarters.
We’re hiring a COO for Pearl—which places top 1% talent from around the world into operational roles at startups and incredible orgs. Seven years ago we grass rooted campaigns convincing the hungry, sharp operators join some of the best tech and mid market companies growing fast.
We’ve bootstrapped our company to millions in revenue and running profitability within our first year. We’re now on year three with 10x growth in the last calendar year. Joining Pearl is for the hungry, relentless, extreme owners, and team over everything individuals. We live by our values (below)— if the values do not 100% align with you, do not apply— you will fail here.
At Pearl, we know that although opportunities aren’t created equal in the world, ambitious talent is. And it’s our mission to give hires from around the world who are sharp and hungry the opportunity to earn far more than they would in their home countries while learning from founders and Entrepreneurs who have raised and made tens of millions to billions.
Our clients are fast-growing startups and phenomenal US based businesses that have raised over $3B in funding from Sequioa, a16z, Founders Fund, Y Combinator, and other top VC firms.
I’m a 3x founder and most recently was investing into deep tech companies as COO of a fund in SF: I grew up in the Philippines myself—which is why I care so much about giving international talent opportunities to work at the best companies in the world) and most recently was investing.
My cofounder is a 3x founder as well. Pearl was born out of a 3 year project solving our own hiring needs for our last tech companies. This has given us a unique and differentiated view into how to hire and retain the best talent and then build a business model that fits around the north star goal of hiring. Our competitors build a business product maximizing profit — we build to maximize career trajectory, work hard play hard fun, and 2-3x growth for the individual and companies we partner with. For this reason, we’re winning big.
This is a completely WFH opportunity, where you’ll come in and help us lead and set the direction of our fast-growing company. We’ll need someone who can work ET hours.
About The Role
We are looking for a COO to help lead and scale our fast-growing company. You will be the operational backbone, driving strategic execution, ensuring we maintain our culture at scale, and making sure every part of Pearl is running at peak performance.
This is not a “steady-state” role. We are moving fast, and you will be working directly with the founders to build infrastructure, teams, and processes to support hypergrowth.
Metrics Accountable For

- Client retention and satisfaction rates
- Talent placement success and retention rates
